Professor Brown, of the Ontario Ag-
ncultural College, at Guelph, Canada,
recently summed up the usefulness of
bran to farmers, after having carefully
considered its chemical composition:
l. Bran is concentrated food, which.
though varia le in composition, possesses
high nutritive valHe.
,. Roller process bran is, on the aver
age, richer than old process bran.
3. Its excess of ash or mineral matters
eminently fits it for bone building in
growing anima's, and for supplementing
the lack of mineral matters in roots.
i. Its chemi al composition points to
the conclusion that it is somewhat better
adapted to the formation of fat and pro-
duction of heat than to the formation
Of muscle or of milk.
Both its chemical composition and
its physical form adapt it admirably as
su Elementary food to be used in con-
nection with poor and bulky fodder, such
as straw and roots.
Il. Its manurial or fertilizing value
alone repays It's cost.
Z. By retaining and feeding the bran
upon the farm the objection to selling
the grain is Tart Y overcome, viz, the
exhaustion of the soil, since the bran re-
tains most of the mineral matters which
cannot be derived from the air.-Ae,o

the platform of the car and entered the
express room, where he found three
strings of fish and some bacon, all Of

FARM AND GARDEN.
When to Plant Lilies.

A great deal of failure is due to plant
ing bulbs at improper seasons. The time
rec m nended as being the best is the
months of October November, March,
and April. Many fail from planting late
in the spring after the weather has be-
come hot and dry, which causes the
bulbs to decay before they can form
roots and commence growth. OF course
where the climate will permit, bulbs can
be planted at any time during the win
ter, but if it can be done in autumn, it
would no doubt he better. Bulbs should
always be planted as soon rs received, or
packed in soil until planting time. Moth
ing iniuIes them more than exposure to
the air, or to lie around dry. --American

present. 1t was the first time since
June so that Bushong has caught at
home, and the veteran catcher was
given a magnificent reception. The
game was characterized by brilliant
fielding and some mighty hard hitting.
knoutf pitched his first game in st.
Louis, and outside of little wildness,
pitched an excellent game. He was
splendldly supported by Bushong,
whose throwing, however, was not up
to his high standard, because of his lack
OF practice. Snyder caught beautiful
game, and gave Crowell fine support.
He caught a half dozen of the champions
stealing second. The infield work Of
Gleason and Mexican was very fine.
CarutherS, Allen and Welch made fine
running catches. Tip O'Neill's hitting
was one of the best features of the game,
while Foutz, Caruthers. Knouff and Nc
Clone eXcelled in this respect. The
game was interesting throughout. and
furnished great sport for the spectators.

Crushed by a spotted Adder.

From Madison Wis., Special
Yesterday Richard EagelSton, a farmer
residing in the town of Vienna, this
county, had thrilling experience with
large spotted adder, which would have
proven fatal had not assistance arrived.
Eagelston, who was an old man eighty
years of age and paralyzed on one side,
was driving cattle near his farm, ac-
cOmpanied by his daughter, when he
saw in front of him, coiled up in the
roadway, the snake, which, as the team
advanced, evinced no disposition to
move aside. EagelstOn was afraid to
drive over it lest his horses might re-
ceive poisonous wounds, and therefore
alighted to drive it away. AS he APP
preached the yenOmous creature be-
viciously, in twinkIing en-
twined itself spirally around the old
and almost helpless man. 1t darted its
fangs into its victims trousers leg, but
fortunately did not reach the flesh. The
terrified daughter, fearing to attack the
monster herself. quickly fastened away
and gave the alarm at the first farm
house. Several men Immediately ran
to the rescue, and after severe Strug-
gle, in which the snake fought desper-
ately, succeeded in killing the creature
and releasing the old man, whose face
was purple from the constantly tighten
ing folds of the monster. Besides aching
bones from the terrible pressure to
which they had been subjected, the old
man sustained a severe nervous shock:
but he will probably recover. The
snake measured trif1e over eight feet
in length, and was fully three inches in
diameter where its body reached the
largest swell. No such monster has
been seen here in many a day.

THE BULL AND THE LOVERS.
Mary Passes an Hour With Her
Aoung Man in Awkward Com

pany.
Stamford Dispatch to New York Sun.
Ebert Hurd, the milk man, has a
lively blonde bull and a charming
brunette daughter. All the neighbors
are afraid of the former and all the
neighbors' boys are crazy after the lat
ter. Last Saturday night the bull broke
loose from his stall, and after foraging
around the garden sass crop found the
back door open. He entered and helped
himself to pan of apples: the old folks
being out, he poked open the kitchen
door and went in. Instead of coming
out the way he entered he chose the par
lor door, and as soon as he crossed the
threshold rotten board gave way and
the ugly beast descended to the cellar.
The goods folks did not return until
bed time and no lamps were lighted.
Doors were closed all around and quiet
ness prevailed.
The next morning Mary, the pretty
daughter, insisted that she heard groans
during the night, but she was laughed
at, and no more was thought of it. The
whole family started early for day at
Seaside park, in Bridgeport, and came
home soon enough for Mary to be in
when her lover came. Soon after dark
he knocked at the front door, and to
escape mosquitoes the couple entered
the parlOr.
Mary started for the shelf for match,
and down she went, landing plump on
the Jersey bulls back. Her exclama-
ton was one of surprise rather than
pain, and her lover quickly ran to learn
the cause. Quicker than a wink he
landed in Mary's arms, and the situa-
ton became decidedly interesting. 1t
took more than an hour to straighten
matters out so that sparkling could
be resumed, and everybody, includ-
ing the old folks, promised dead 81

Davenport DemocratGazette: Manager
Lucas of the Duluth club, who is to be mana
ger of next years Davenport club. writes TO
the parties who are pushing the project here,
that there is good prospect for buying the
franchise of the La Crosse club, a member of
the Northwestern league. Should this be
accomplished we shall have that which is
most heartily desired, as a membership in
the Northwestern league is far preferable to
any state or interstate league, and will insure
a tirst-class club. A club for this city during
next season is an assured fact.
